United Healthcare/United Behavioral Health

As one of the leading healthcare organizations in this area, Atlantic Counseling Group has been a provider with United Healthcare/United Behavior Health (UBH) for many years. However, it has come to our attention that the average reimbursement rates paid by UBH are more than 50% lower than the average rates paid by Anthem, Aetna, Cigna, and Tricare. Moreover, they have declined to negotiate these rates with our group of providers. Due to this unfortunate turn of events, Atlantic Counseling Group is no longer accepting new clients and its providers may end their contracts with UBH at the end of 2017. We hope this time will allow clients an opportunity to express their concerns to UBH and with their HR departments. Also, during this time period, you may have the ability to choose insurance plans that would best address this possibility. Please discuss this matter further with the provider you see in our offices. In addition, you may want to use the following letters to aid in this process. Thank you for your consideration of Atlantic Counseling Group as your behavioral health service provider. Please see the letters below for further explanation:
